Math

[Acadia]

From a strictly mathematical viewpoint
it goes like this:
What Makes 100%? What does it mean to give MORE than 100%? Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%. How about achieving 103%? What makes up 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:

If:
A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z is represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

and

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But,

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

And,

B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

AND, look how far ass kissing will take you.

A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%

So, one can then conclude with mathematical certainty that While Hard work and knowledge will get you close, and, Attitude will get you there, ******** and Ass kissing will put you over the top.

The bosses sure have this figured out. They can only count when it's to their advantage. Example:
R-A-I-S-E
18+1+9+19+5+52%
That's funny. I've never gotten a 52% raise. Have you? :P

Actually I did once, what seems like a few millennia ago -- or pretty close, anyway.

I was a law clerk with a patent/trademark law firm back in the late 60's, and I discovered that the going rate was about 30 percent of what the firm charged its clients for the clerk's work.

So I pointed this out to the senior partner, and he agreed I should get $10K a year, not the $7500 I was then making. Got half the increase next check, and the rest a month later.

Doesn't sound like much money these days, of course -- but keep in mind that a good clerk-typist or similar typically made about $75 a week back then.

s o c i a l s e c u r i t y
19+15+3+9+21+11 19+5+3+21+18+9+20+25=138

If this is the way it works I am getting screwed. More like -100=38 maybe.

;D ;D ;)

Wow,

all i ever hear is, "if we could just get you to focus just 50% of your attention to your job..."

S-E-C-R-E-T-A-R-Y
19-5-3-18-5-20-1-18-25 = 114%

Guess who is REALLY running the place? :-*

C-L-E-R-K T-Y-P-I-S-T is even more!
3-11-5-18-11-20-25-16-9-19-20 = 157%

(Can someone check my math please - math is really not my forte)

;D

Looooooooooool!!!

I'll wait the end of the year to see if it's worth doing what I'm doing now.... :P

Hey Carolina,

So good to see you again !

Oops, too long ago I studied Math ;D

[CarolinaMoonshine]

Hey Fan J, thanks for the welcome back!

I HAS been a long time! ::)

......but only since I have posted. I always am browsing! ;)
